So I caved, I gave into peer pressure and joined pinterest. I shouldn’t have. I will never get off my computer now. Except of course to do the things that I find on Pinterest. So far I have made a couple games and pre-school activities for the kids (future blog posts to come). And then I came across these energy bite cookies. I started drooling immediately. So I did a quick cupboard inventory, and adjusted it slightly to accommodate. Let me tell you, they. are. amazing. They are quicker than no-bakes (like 5 min tops) healthier than no-bakes (no sugar or butter) and less clean up (no pots and pans!).

Ok so without further ado: My new fave cookie.

1 cup uncooked oatmeal

1 cup unsweetened coconut flakes

1/2 cup craisins

1/2 cup Nutella

1/3 cup honey

1 tsp. vanilla

Mix all together, and chill mold into balls (or cookies). I really want to get some flax seed for extra nutritional value.
